    I've just finished one of the Dick Francis novels, I forget which one. They're all nice, brainless fun.

    Clive Cussler is good for brainless fun too. Shock Wave was a good adventure book.

    Elizabeth Wurtzel is captivating, though I can't read Bitch without wanting to drop kick something small, cute and fluffy.

    Everyone should read Time-Traveller's Wife NOW. My favourite book ever, I think.

    I was going to get that at the library the other day. But I've got an exam to study for - then I can get back into reading properly, and I'll go and get it.

    I'm reading up for my Financial Planning Certificate - but at the same time, trying to read Augusten Burroughs - Dry. It's the one after 'Running with Scissors' (which I'm told comes out later this year as a movie). EVERYONE should read them!

    I've just finished Daddy Long Legs, by Jean Webster for the 10000000th time, it's great.
    I'm reading The Amber Spyglass as well, although my progress with that is hindered by being back at uni; I read the other two over Boxing day and the day after. I think Philip Pullman is great, and I really liked the Sally Lockhart books as well.
    What else have I got to read? Oh yeah, some course textbooks like 'An Introduction to Old English', something about phonology and my new photocopy packs for Syntax and LVC.

    I'm reading A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth, or at least trying. Because of its size its not something I can pop in my bag and read on the bus, so I'm trying to make time for it. That and a couple of History books for my course about the Victorian Underworld and Soviet State and Society.

    I LOVE that book! It's weird, granted, but in such a wonderul way....

    I'm reading an e.e cummings poetry collection (my favourite poet by far), and Hope Dies Last by Studs Terkel. Waiting for amazon to send me the sequel to A Million Little Pieces; it's called My Friend Leonard and is meant to be even better than the first one....

    Good taste! God, I love e.e cummings, impossible not to when he has produced the best metaphor for bedroom eyes I've ever read.

    ". . . . . . . And eyes big love-crumbs,

    and possibly i like the thrill

    of under me you so quite new"

    Best sex poetry ever. ;):p
